Huge Score...and some new work....

I was at the thrift store the other day and I saw this. Beautiful, unfinished quilt. I thought..well there must be something wrong with it. Nope, all finished but the edging! So I took a gander at the price and almost fell over..$20.00! This beautiful hand pieced quilt, almost done for $20.00! Well ya know I bought it..and I will finish this sweet piece in a flip of a lamb's tail! What do ya think...score right??

We have had this lovely garden spider on our back deck for a few weeks now. Making beautiful webs and entertaining us all. So it only seemed right to take a few macro shots and creep everyone out!


I have been knitting..and knitting and knitting..here are a couple new sets of fingerless gloves in my Etsy shop!

I think I like the purple ails better..what do ya think??

Hope everyone is having a great week!!
Namaste, Sarah

WOW total score!!!It's hard to find those goodies as much since more people shop thrift stores and they all have people behind the scenes selling the REALLY good finds online anymore!! Feels like fall today up here doesn't it??

Great score on the quilt, I have been fortunate over the years to grab up some great quilts for under twenty dollars. Love the spiders
